What changed
Measurement. Low-carbon generation share reached 64.9 % against a 60 % reference.
Decision implication. High low-carbon penetration shows how much thermal generation the system can displace while maintaining the required operating balance.
Evidence boundary. The event is a deterministic threshold or record comparison. It identifies a measurement that warrants investigation; it does not assign causality or quantify commercial exposure.
